Default bipe help please

just finished assembling the Hobby People Waco bipe ARF.
I'm having a hard time getting the master aileron to drive the slave ( top) aileron in both directions. I believe one of the horns inclided with the plane is wrong. being my first bipe I'm not sure though. would someone be able to take a close up photo of one side of their bipe so that I can examine linkage from one aileron to the otherr? The Waco has one wing further infront of the other. not sure if that matters.
would be a great help,
Paul

If they are using standard control horns, the horns should have the holes facing rearward and all but the first hole cut off. Also, the horns should be attached near thr trailing edge of the aileron, not the leading edge where a control horn would normally go.
